We used Tampa Bay Food Trucks for a recent event and had a great experience! The entire process was easy, streamlined, and completely hassle-free. The food trucks were fantastic, the food was amazing, and everything came together seamlessly. Would definitely recommend them for anyone planning an event!

The food trucks were a big success. I got a lot of compliments on the food. It was something fun for my daughter's wedding instead of the old sit down chicken dinner. I highly recommend you doing it for your next event. Kim was very helpful and organized it making everything come together smoothly.

What can I say about Kim and Tampa Bay Food Truck Rally except that they saved this mama’s life! We had the concept of an outdoor event with food trucks for our son’s wedding reception even before he got engaged. So, when the time came, I began to search out food trucks on my own. Luckily, I came upon the TBFTR website which immediately grabbed my attention. And am I glad it did! Kim Sanders was invaluable in all steps of planning our event, from helping us decide which types of cuisine we wanted, to the number of trucks we would need, to reserving the trucks for the event. Then, along with her assistant Jessica, she was there well before the event until all clean-up was finished that evening. She answered every question and concern I had along the way. This is our fourth child to get married, fourth wedding reception to plan and, by far, the absolute least stressful occasion of the four. Our guests are still raving about the amazingly delicious food provided by Nico’s and The Rolling Gourmet (how about those fries…YUM!) and how much fun it was to have a genuine food truck walk-up “experience”. And can I tell you how excited the kids (and grownups!) were about the sundae and snow cone bar provided by Chief’s Chill-out? All of the food was fresh, made to order and served quickly. It was a perfect evening and I am so very thankful that Kim and Tampa Bay Food Truck Rally was there to help us out! Let’s have a party so we can do it again!

Our Roots: The Evolution of Tampa’s Food Truck Scene
The Tampa food truck scene gained momentum with the city’s first food truck rally on Sept. 23, 2011, organized by Tasting Tampa. This event helped spark a thriving food truck culture in the region. By 2013, Tampa became one of the top cities for launching a food truck, second only to San Antonio, Texas. Tampa Bay Food Trucks has been instrumental in this growth, partnering with major employers, universities, hospitals, and local attractions such as Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park.
